Dust by Monday was formed by Nick Dunker (bass, vocals) and Alex Ruwe (guitar, vocals) over a shared love for pop-punk and alternative rock music. Joined soon after by Les Douglas (guitar) and Matt Sonnega (Drums), Dust by Monday released their first self-produced EP—”The Art of Wondering Why”, available on all major streaming platforms—featuring six high-energy tracks, including "Your Favorite Song," which was featured on 96Rock's Homegrown local artist spotlight. Dust by Monday were one of five finalists for the 2019 Cincinnati neXt2Rock contest hosted by 96Rock. Their latest single, “Shadow of You”, is now available for streaming everywhere. Dust by Monday has performed at venues across the Greater Cincinnati Area, including Bogart’s, and is currently writing new music while taking Cincinnati’s bars, venues, and back yards by storm!
